Armstrong Legal specialises in tax fraud and criminal prosecutions for tax evasion.
Tax fraud and tax evasion are criminal offences which are prosecuted by the
Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecution in criminal courts. The consequences are in
the same way criminal. A range of penalties can be imposed, including but not limited
to fines and imprisonment.

Dealing with a criminal prosecution for tax fraud or tax evasion is a very different
matter to conducting an audit or being assessed by the tax office. It is a criminal
issue and you need criminal experts to deal with it.

This is a highly specialised field of law and very few lawyers have both criminal
law and tax law experience. Our team of specialised lawyers includes:

A former ATO lawyer trained in tax prosecutions;

A lawyer who has had articles published in tax journals;

A number of lawyers who have also completed accounting and business degrees.

This means that you will be dealing with a team of lawyers who understand the tax
system, the workings of the ATO and are experienced in the court room.

Tax fraud matters are complex and you need the right lawyer to act for you.
